Scientists build 'nanobowls' to protect catalysts needed for better biofuel production
Description Scientists are using a layering technique developed for microchip manufacturing to build nanoscale 'bowls' that protect miniature metal catalysts from the harsh conditions of biofuel refining. Furthermore, the size, shape, and composition of the nanobowls can easily be tailored to enhance their functionality and specificity.
